12 Online Hustles That Will Make You a Full-Time Income

If you would have asked me years back what my plan for my life was, my answer would have been the typical response that you get from most people. They will respond by telling you that they want to work some sort of day job. We are taught at a young age to go to school, work, go to college, and then work. Most people spend majority of their lives working their butts off just to work for someone else.

We are told to get good grades to be able to go to this amazing university and graduate at the top of our class because it looks good on our resume. But all of this hard work just leads us to work a day job that is helping someone else build their dream. You work so hard just to be told that you can’t go on that yearly family trip to Mexico because you are needed at work.

Oh, you feel sick? I am sorry but you still need to come to work unless you are practically dying and can’t function. You have kids but guess what you have to work the holidays. Oh, your kid is sick? Too bad… have the babysitter or someone else pick them up. You cannot leave work. If you call in one more time you are fired. Sorry, your dad just passed away. Here are 3 days off and then you are expected to return back to work.

That job that you have been working at for over 10 years is paying you less than new employees and guess what you don’t get your raise this year.

Do you get where I am going with this?!

Why in the world do we work soo hard just to slave for someone else and not even get the freedom that we deserve?

Before I knew the possibilities of being an Entrepreneur and a blogger I would have slaved for someone else the rest of my life. After all, that is the “right” thing to do right?! NOT FOR ME! Now, the thought of working a normal job makes me sick to my stomach literally. I would have never imagined the world of opportunity that was in store for me and I could not be more thankful for taking the risk for a greater reward!

Some thought I was crazy for quitting my “normal job” and somedays I think that I am crazy too. But then I get the reminder I need of why I quit my job and it has been the most rewarding thing I could have ever done. You may not believe that making money online is a real thing and it is some sort of scam or too good to be true. But I am a normal person just like you, and I am telling you IT IS POSSIBLE! You just have to have to take the risks, put in the hard work, have confidence in yourself, and trust in the process. You can do anything that you put your mind to.

Once you become FEARLESS, life becomes LIMITLESS!

Okay, so here is the list that you have been waiting for of the top online hustles that will earn you a full-time income if you put in the work and speak your success into existence.

Did you know that you can sell your products on Amazon as a private seller?! Well, guess what… YOU CAN! There are even a couple of different ways that you can do so which I will talk about in a moment. Selling on Amazon is one of the hottest ways of earning a full-time income nowadays!

Whether you are an online shopper or not, everyone has heard of Amazon and knows what it is. Amazon is a major search engine for products. Believe it or not, Amazon has even become a competitor to Google when it comes to product searches. Nowadays when most people are in search of a product the first thing they do is go to Amazon and see if it is available.

You may be asking yourself okay why does that matter and how does that make me money?!

The traffic and trust that people have in Amazon are actually what will ultimately make you successful on Amazon!

There are different ways that you can earn money on Amazon and I will explain them in a moment.

Retail Arbitrage

Retail Arbitrage is when you purchase a product at a discounted price from a retail store and then resell it at a higher price.

This is the method of selling that is usually recommended for beginners. It allows you to get your feet wet without having to invest a ton of money up front. It is low risk because your initial investment can literally be less than $100. The key to success with Retail Arbitrage is making sure that you are purchasing profitable products to sell on Amazon to make your investment money back and accrue a profit margin.

Private Labeling

Private labeling is when you purchase products from overseas merchants at a wholesale cost and private label the products as if you were the manufacturer. This is a higher risk method that involves a much higher initial investment but the profit margins are much greater. Private labeling allows you to build a brand around a product and will open more windows of opportunity for you in the future.

Amazon FBA

FBA stands for fulfillment by Amazon. Therefore, Amazon FBA is the process of selling items that you ship to an Amazon warehouse where they hold your inventory and Amazon takes care of everything related to the customer. When the customer makes a purchase of one of your products Amazon will ship it to the customer. If for any reason the customer is unsatisfied with their order Amazon will also handle the return/exchange process for you. When you choose to sell your products through FBA your products will qualify for free 2-day shipping to Amazon Prime members as well. It is an awesome system!

Merchant Fulfilled

Merchant fulfilled selling on Amazon is when you sell and ship your own products. You are responsible for every aspect of selling your products and dealing with customers. You are responsible for keeping all of your inventory in stock in your own space and shipping products to customers at your own out of pocket costs. You are probably asking why anyone would want to do all of this work when they could just have Amazon do it. That is a great question and here is why… merchant fulfilled means that you will pocket all of the profit without having to pay Amazon fees. But in my opinion, it is totally worth paying the Amazon fees and going the FBA route.

Upwork is the number one freelancing platform. If you are someone in need of assistance you can post a job on Upwork that freelancers can submit proposals to. Or you can manually search for a freelancer and invite one of your preference to apply for the job.

If you are a freelancer that is looking for work, you will create a profile and begin searching for jobs that fit your expertise. Once you find a job that you would like to apply for you will submit a proposal and wait for a response from the potential client.

Fiverr is a newer platform that is also for freelancers. It is a lot like Upwork in the sense that you can seek jobs and hire freelancers. If you are a freelancer you will sign up as a seller and create a gig. A gig is your form of services that you are offering or selling. The difference with Fiverr is that you do not apply to jobs. You have to wait for jobs to find you. But there are many people who are successful on Fiverr and become a great way of earning money on the side that could possibly turn into a full-time income.

Blogging is an awesome way to turn a hobby into a full-time career. There are a ton of ways that you can earn an income blogging.

6. Dropshipping

Dropshipping is the process of retail fulfillment where a store does not keep the items that they are selling in stock. Rather, their products are kept by the manufacturer. When an order from your store, you will then go place the order through your manufacturer and the manufacturer will fulfill and send out the order for you. It is a great method of making an extra income on the side with the potential of turning it into a full-time business.

An eCommerce store is basically an online store that sells products. It can be anything and everything. Dropshippers sell their products through an eCommerce store. People also start their own eCommerce store to sell their very own private labeled or wholesale products. You can run an online store for handmade and digital products as well. Literally, if there is something that you can sell and have enough inventory to make an online store out of it, YOU CAN!

Each and every one of us has a knowledge or a talent that others don’t. For example, there are many people who would love to become a blogger but have no idea how to get started. This is a perfect opportunity to offer your services to them such as online coaching. Sure, people can find free information all over the internet but it does not mean that they know how to piece it all together. Offering online coaching gives people the opportunity to get one on one coaching from someone who has already been there, done that, and resulted in success.

This sort of goes off of what I previously mentioned about having an expertise that others don’t. Online teaching is another great way of sharing your knowledge with others. Create an online course that you can offer people on how to do something. You will be surprised how many people would rather just spend money to conveniently get the answers step by step to something rather than putting in the hard work of finding all of the information on their own and going through trial and error. Do not doubt your abilities to offer someone else your expertise. A great platform to create an online course is Teachable.

10. Freelancing

There are endless opportunities for freelancers. You can become a freelance web developer (like me!), graphic designer, content creator, copywriter, paralegal, virtual assistant, writer, etc. Literally, any service that you can offer can be offered as a freelancer. A great platform to use is UpWork which I previously mentioned above.

Do you love making DIY projects? Do you always get compliments on your finished project and people tell you that you could sell your products because they are just that good?! If you are a crafty person Etsy is your place! You can sell all of your handcrafted products on Etsy to people all over the world. Finally put your hard work online and start making money off of your talents.

12. Digital Products

If you are a techy person you should totally start looking into creating your own digital products to sell. It is one of the best ways to earn an extra income. You can create an e-book, e-course, printable PDFs, crafts, etc. Even if it is something simple such as a downloadable PDF. You would be surprised at how many people actually pay for simple things because they either do not have the time, patience or know how to do it themselves. So techy people are of essence to them.

If you are on the hunt for a side hustle to bring in some extra income be sure to hop onto one of the side hustles listed above. You never know, you may just become so good at it that you turn your side hustle into a full-time job!
